Here's a video of the Thursday night A ride. But some explanation is necessary first. The group started out on a really fast ride of around 40 miles. The entire ride was balls to the walls, which is normal. On the final stretch of a few miles, the remaining group splits in half as three riders fall back. The V goes around them and catches the three front riders. Watch the guy with the flasher. Eventually, he takes off and leaves the other two in his dust. So the Vendetta, having a mind of its own, takes over control and gives chase. This guy's going on and on like a bat out of hell. Just amazing power output. Finally, I catch up to him while we're still a ways off from the stop ahead sign, which is the destination for the final sprint (unofficially, of course). I cruise up quickly behind him at full speed while he's getting a drink, probably assuming he's left everyone in his dust many miles behind because he's an unbelievable animal on a bike (which is true). He probably didn't expect that stupid recumbent to come out of nowhere like a red rocket and blow past him at full speed. As I passed him, a car passed me, providing a distraction. But he realized what I had done and he quickly jumped in a massive sprint. I was going all out and he was quickly growing bigger and bigger in my mirrors anyway. And then I passed the sign. And then he passed me. This guy sprinted on a DF to catch an all out Vendetta. Just amazing. Enjoy the show.
